Kyles of Bute and the Waverley

It really was a thrill for me, boating with the queen of steamboats. Hearing the distinctive noise of her side paddles beating the water and watching the crowds gathered on the decks enjoying the experience of “going doon the water” once again.

I thought of myself as a youngster exploring the passageways, rummaging in the gift shop, eating ice cream cones and spending time with relatives long gone. Yup.. it made my day ..and what a great day it was too, my best boating trip so far this year.
